My family and I are headed to Tennessee to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park at the end of the month. We are going back for my class reunion and some time with one of our favorite places on earth. We were looking forward to hiking the trails and a trip to cades cove. We visit National Parks frequently, enjoying America and the freedom that we have. Don’t take away our right to visit the memorials, parks and our heritage. There are workers that will be impacted, the economy will suffer even more and this will take us years to recover from.
Sincerely,
Great Smoky Mountains National Park
